Every year Bonneville School has Bronco Days, which is a fun carnival, for a school fundraiser. Xander was so overly excited for this. Yesterday afterschool it was all he could talk about, that it was 'Bronco Days today!' He kept telling me that it started at 5:30 and that we needed to be there the whole 2 hours that it ran. But we had to wait for Pat to get home from work before we could go, and that about killed Xander. He did okay waiting and we were able to walk to the school around 6. We bought ticket lanyards for the kids that entitled them to do up to 20 things. Each booth or activity was 1 ticket, so there was a high potential to get alot of stuff. Mara was in it for the candy, and Xander wanted tickets. At the end we had about 10 tickets and the kids were able to get little prizes. It was alot of fun and it made Xander happy :)
Mara in the sawdust pool
(she found a jolly rancher and was pretty happy about it)
Xander got a few tickets from this one because he was able to hit the target with the nerf gun!
You would think with all the practice they got a few weeks ago they would have been able to get a hole it one, but no luck. At least they got candy as parting gifts :)
The line for the hair coloring was really short so Pat took Mara over. She was so excited to have 'pink' in her hair!!!
And she was even brave enough to get her face painted!!
(but only if daddy was with her)
While Mara & Pat did the hair and face painting, Xander and I waited in line for the balloon 'animals'.
Here's Mara with her flower.
And Xander with his sword!
On the walk home Mara was worn out, so daddy was nice enough to carry her for a bit.
Such a fun night to have a school carnival.
